This is a new installation on a new hard drive. I got to the point of
entering registration information. The next screen asks to click on the user
entered os the registered user on the prior screen and then asks for a
password. Out of habit I tried my old password. I then tried no password
and again with a space as the password. I tried a few others also to no
avail. In all cases I get, "the specified domain either does not exist or
could not be contacted."
How do I get past this so I can setup the domain and whatever else it may
need? I assume this has to do with having a router attached to the machine
installed Windows XP Home Edition on?
